Arnold Pointer, a professional fisherman from south of Australia set free from a certain death a big female White Shark that was caught in his fishing nets.

Arnold Says: “Once I stop the boat she comes to me, she turns on her back and lets me pet her belly and neck, she grunts, turns her eyes, and moves her fins up and down hitting the water happily.
